What to Consider About Assisted Living in Princeton

Princeton is well-known as the birthplace of famed frontierswoman Calamity Jane and is a scenic choice for seniors who enjoy being close to the outdoors, as the town is situated near Lake Paho State Wildlife Area. It's the county seat of Mercer County, Missouri, which has 3,641 residents, 22.1% of whom are aged 65 years and older.

Princeton seniors can choose between the city's two assisted living facilities when they need support with activities of daily living. In Princeton, as it is throughout Missouri, assisted living facilities are regulated by the Department of Health and Senior Services. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Princeton

  • Missouri tax laws provide some benefits for Princeton seniors, including exemptions for Social Security and public pension incomes. However, most other retirement income is subject to full taxation.
  • The weather in Princeton is fairly temperate, so seniors can stay comfortable year-round. The area sees an average amount of rain with 39 inches per year, which is just one inch more than the national average, and a well-below average amount of snow with 16 inches annually. 
  • The Princeton area has a below-average crime rate. Property crime is 1.7% below the national average with a score of 21 out of 100, while violent crime occurs 2.1% less often than the national average. Still, seniors are encouraged to discuss security measures with their assisted living providers. 
  • Princeton has no facilities from which to choose in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospital located in Trenton, Missouri.
  • Seniors in Princeton can expect a cost of living 25.5% lower than the U.S. average. Housing is especially affordable with an average cost that is nearly 50% lower than elsewhere in Missouri.
  • Princeton hosts fun community events, like Calamity Jane Day, which includes a parade, contests and games that seniors can enjoy.
